I didn't, since I don't think Ayumi has been gone in order for her to have a comeback.

How can people find out about the tracks without buying it? It didn't sell that much because people purchased it on-line or on their mobile phone. Also, the fact that she released only two singles before the album might have hurt as well. But the third single might have been cancelled because of her health.

She has had competition since day 1. It won't magically disappear or reappear at any given time.

I think it's more because she's advertised for everyone who can afford her.

That is just your opinion. How can you call her music distasteful? Distasteful would be stripping out from her geisha outfit and flirting with the horse. Those are references to the "part of Me" PV which isn't music, but still, she doesn't have random orgasm noises in her songs. They're nowhere near distasteful.

Are you trying to say that anything under 4.5m is low? Low by Ayumi standards is 100k which is a lot to some. Koda Kumi is the most popular female singer in Japan now, but it's not like she's the only one. There are other very popular singers as well. ULTRA BLUE was released before Secret so it hasn't surpassed Secret's sales.
